Package: ygraph
Version: 0.15-2
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch
Dear ygraph package maintainer,
The ygraph package in Ubuntu added a ygraph.desktop file so that the
users can have a desktop menu entry for ygraph. I am now sending this
change to Debian, so that you can review it and hopefully add it to the
Debian package as well.
As this is an upstream issue, I'll appreciate if you can forward this
patch to ygraph upstream as well.
The attached patch adds a debian/ygraph.desktop file, and adds two lines
in debian/rules to install this file in /usr/share/applications/ as
well as to update the desktop file database in maintainer's scripts. If
you don't like the way Ubuntu changes debian/rules, you can also use the
separately attached ygraph.desktop file.
Thanks in advance,
Ming
